Introduction: Indulge in the heavenly combination of chocolate, marshmallows, and nuts with homemade rocky road ice cream. This rich and creamy treat is a favorite among chocolate lovers, offering a perfect balance of sweetness and crunch in every spoonful. Let's dive into the recipe and create a batch of irresistible frozen goodness!

Ingredients:

• 2 cups heavy cream
• 1 cup whole milk
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup mini marshmallows
• 1/2 cup chopped almonds (or your preferred nuts)

Instructions:

1. In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, and unsweetened cocoa powder.
2. Place the saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is hot and the sugar and cocoa powder are fully dissolved. Do not let it boil.
3. Once the mixture is heated through and the sugar and cocoa powder are dissolved, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.
4. Stir in the vanilla extract.
5. Cover the saucepan with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface of the mixture to prevent a skin from forming.
6. Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until thoroughly chilled.
7. Once chilled, pour the chocolate mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
8. During the last few minutes of churning, add the mini marshmallows and chopped almonds, allowing them to mix into the ice cream.
9. Transfer the churned rocky road ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
10. Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping.
11. Scoop the decadent rocky road ice cream into bowls or cones, and savor the delightful combination of chocolate, marshmallows, and nuts!
